Title: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on February 27, 2011, 07:12:04 pm
I wanted to edit my next vid but I wasn't able to make the program work, so I couldn't resist the temptation of uploading some pics-frames...
There you go:

reach:

Dunk made, recorded with my standard camera (bad quality when light is intense):

Dunk made, way better quality:( I just love this frame,btw)

Pics from yesterday's session. the camera was placed on top of my bag wich was on a chair, so less of a grounded angle than usual. These are frames from different dunks, all mades. PB? 90 cm or so? what do you guys think? waiting for feedback.

first one on the almost destroyed backboard :P

best dunk of the session, maybe the best ever for me, brought the ball way back from my standard, powerfull slam.

you will emil. gotta drop a raw video (so darq can choose some dunks from there for the adarq.org mix) as soon as I get some serious dunks in trieste also. Can't wait. And thx BTW, your comments are always appreciated ;)
Quoted so no one misses the pics
Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: vag on August 20, 2011, 09:48:23 am
They are all very high , awesome progress!!!  :highfive:  :ibjumping:
There is some distortion but still , given hand angle and all i'd say it's safe to say wrist was 2-3'' above rim , what is your reach again?
Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on August 20, 2011, 09:56:45 am
Thx so much Vag!
Yeah, some distorsion is there. reach is 2m37cm. My hands (top of the middle finger to wrist) are 19 cm long (damn small hands).
I coffee'd after a long time (I usually never drink coffee) and just jumped the best I can. I actually thought somebody lowered both the rims LOL! I just couldn't believe it really.
Title: Re: recent dunk pics

oh, the tounge out on every attempt helped too, I think... :P

Yes , coffee always helps , even more if you don't use it often.
Well , our estimations agree , 2-3'' wrist over rim is 324 to 327 so vert is 87 to 90 cm , 35.5'' , awesomeness!!!

MADNESS!

I filled my bag in order to gain some cm and raise the camera a little bit more (5 to 7 cm), but I guess the result is not so relevant :\. Here are today's best screenshots. Waiting for your comments as usual.

damn looks like you crushed that baseline 180............ when u going to drop vid of that?

you actually tried to pull legs up on those other pics? i do that naturally, i cant keep them stiff/straight even if i wanted too hah.. looks like head to 9' backboard pretty easy now.
Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on August 22, 2011, 07:51:15 pm
I actually tried to hit the backboard with the head and didn't succed because of insane fear on the first try, as I wasn't thinking I was able to actually do that and almost crushed my head on it LOL.

And yeah, I tried to pull the legs. Wanted to try something different. I am mad for that first miss, felt really high. I'm happy with the cool frames though :)
Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: Raptor on August 23, 2011, 05:44:46 am
Looking good. I bet that orange ball has so much grip, Flip has a similar one and we dunk that so well.
Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on August 23, 2011, 06:00:10 am
yeah, one of the best outdoor balls ever. funny thing is sometime I got more grip with the black, old and worn out ball, and I actually jump my best with it. whatever the reason is, I bring both of them with me on the court, just in case...

Just my luck. When I'm at my best, injuries happen.
Minor ankle sprain today during pick up games. I was able to walk on my feet, it hurts a bit though. I wanted to upload a new video for my birthday (next sunday) with some dunks recorded in trieste also...I just hope to be able to feel fine for friday's planned dunk session.

Bleh :\

damn, sucks :/

take care of it, lots of ice, but don't rush it.. even if you have to shoot the dunks 1 week after your birthday, it'll be fine, and better since you'll be more recovered :F

how old are you going to be again??!?

Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on September 06, 2011, 12:33:31 am
ahah thanks 'Drew ;)

That court is sweet, went there because the court close to home was actually closed on friday. It is the parking lot of the universitiy though, so there's a chance you cannot play if cars are eventually in there.
As a matter of fact I wanted to dunk on the other basket, but I couldn't do it because a car was parked just under the rim, and I'm no Nightfly...!

Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on September 07, 2011, 01:00:50 am
thank you guys. Yesterday's session, the first one at the age of 28, was a "meh" session....too many people @ the court, the surface was a little dusty so traction was a bit of an issue and the ball got slippery after a couple of attempts, I had some good jumps, but only weak mades, not happy about it.

That's a positive thing. I should be using this frustration as a fuel to my vert next time I go there.
Title: Re: recent dunk pics
Post by: ESav15 on September 16, 2011, 09:32:09 am
Just wanted to let all of you know that my new mix is 75% ready. I'll most likely upload it next week.

And I never say something like this about one of my vid, but this is going to be really good.
Peace!
